Nairobi backing Super Ape Lee "Scratch" Perry
Unknown from Argentina commented on Dub September - 14th:
''Fantastic dubtastic September! Thank you again! Here goes a link to The Big Upsetter and Mad Professor's adventures in Argentina with locals Nairobi. A humble return to all the great sounds you deliver in this shitty times. We fully appreciate your vibes and it's big help to keep us going. Saludos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLe1GP1XLYg''.
Although I do this thing for the pure pleasure of sharing (KARMA POINTS!!!), comments like these help keep me going in these "shitty times".
I'm hopefully posting Mad Professor on the 19th, but thought I'd return Unknown's kindness with a bonus Dub September - 15th

Note: I dreamt up this idea several weeks ago & have been preparing it with much deliberation. There are a few offerings that will make you wonder once again for my sanity or lack there-of. There are one's that are not necessarily pristine. One had the final track so messed up that I couldn't even rip it & had to substitute another track (a bonus track from the CD from the same session). I was still heavily influenced by my positive appraisal of 21st Century Dub & was weighted a bit in that direction. I didn't want to post things I felt were more well known, available elsewhere. I didn't want to post anything I already had (you wouldn't believe the problems that caused...big whole). I didn't want to trumpet the big names: Tubby; Joe Gibbs; Coxsone; Prince Jammy; Bunny Lee; Lee Perry...
but this was all before Pipecock blasted off.
So I've already been paying tribute to the Mage of DUB. I'll probably change up entries when the Super Ape mood comes calling, but I'll try not to be too maudlin. I'll stick to the plan as I can. Nice to start off with some of the finest 21st Century work...Martin Campbell & Alien Dread.
